Brought on RAAF charge on 22 January 1942, it was allocated to 5 Squadron, but passed on to 5 SFTS prior to the former unit moving overseas. Eventually allocated to CFS at East Sale as an instructional airframe, 1956-59. Disposed of an stripped for parts at West Sale - remains recovered in January 1962. Restored at Moorabbin until 1970.

Freshly re-painted in spurious RAAF markings, this Vampire FB Mk.9 was originally delivered to the South African AF as 252. It transferred to the Royal Rhodesian AF/Zimbabwe AF as R1382. It sat in open storage at Gweru 1980-88 until purchased and shipped to Tyabb, Vic, as part of a batch. Eventually acquired by Moorabbin Air Museum and repainted by Precision Aerospace, Wangaratta. The FB.9 was only operated by the RAAF in Malta, 1952-54, and the aircraft retained their UK serials.

You can see how well the camouflage blends with the colours of the Australian bush. I think this aircraft is in Melbournee for fitting with the Echidna EWSP system.

A68-679 was a rare American-built Mustang among the many surviving Australian-built aircraft that had replaced them in the peacetime RAAF. -679 arrived too late to see action and went into storage until sold in 1948. By 1969 it was with the Warbirds Aviation Museum. In 1980 it was shipped to the US where it was transformed into N71FT, Bill "Tiger" Destefani's famous Strega racer.
